After the embroidered shoes incident, our brothers became the plague gods in the village, and they were not welcomed everywhere, because we recruited ghosts and were easy to run into evil spirits, and no one dared to provoke us in school, even if we were our own female classmates, no one dared to say anything when we touched their faces.

Of course, this is still stained with Liu Datou's father's light, even if I dig a few red radishes or something in other people's fields, people are all turning a blind eye, and the days passed like this, until I was ten years old, my life fell into a panic that I had never had.

A lot of big things happened that year, first of all, my parents confirmed the Jiazi mantra, both were born, the village chief saw that the big head and I were good, and pooled some money to bury them together, for the sudden death of my parents, I was sad and panicked for many months before I came out of the shadows.

As the household registration of the village, I inherited the reservoir in my father's name, although there are no fish and shrimp in the reservoir, but it is all my source of livelihood, the village people see that I am a child, and every time I go to school, someone will come to steal it, which makes my life more difficult than before.

Thankfully, the dwarf and the big head lived in my house if they had nothing to do, which made me feel some comfort in my heart, at that time hybrid rice had not yet been available, and every household was very tight on food, but the big head, as the son of the village chief, brought me some surprises from time to time, such as biscuits, canned food, candy and the like.

In the second half of that year, the social atmosphere was very chaotic, and a large number of young people went to the countryside to our village for labor reform.

Of course, this sister is also a trouble, those old bachelors in the village, ill-intentioned men, run to my house every once in a while, which gives me a headache, and then with the help of the big head, the militia borrowed me a 38 cover before it improved slightly.

This sister has been with me until I was eighteen years old before returning to the city, and Liu Datou was sent by his Lao Tzu to be a soldier, the short man he Lao Tzu was exposed because of the incident of the year, arrested into the police station, his mother because she couldn't stand the blow and drank medicine and left, since then, the short man has lived in my house.

I asked the dwarf if he wanted to live to sixty-one, or even older, and the dwarf asked on the spot if there was a way to unravel the Jiazi spell, I only remember that the sister who went to the countryside told me that there was a problem with the water in the village, as if the mercury was excessive, and after a few years of reading, I knew that mercury was not common, but it was mentioned in "Ten Thousand Laws to Hide", saying that it was used in ancient tombs to simulate rivers, lakes and seas.

I guess there must be a group of ancient tombs under the south gate of the back mountain, at that time the social atmosphere improved, and there were often people grazing cattle on the back mountain, and they did not dare to look, until I was in the township to deal with the silver ingots that the big head gave me that year, I knew that tomb robbery was a good livelihood.

The shop is not very big, it looks very simple from the outside, a railing with a few steel bars welded outside the broken door, there is usually no one, the door is locked, but after I inquired, I knew that the boss was nesting on the second floor.

When I took out the silver ingot, the owner with glasses and like an antique smiled happily, poured tea and water, handed cigarettes and snacks, and asked me how much it was.

The boss weighed it for a long time, took out two hundred-yuan bills from his crumpled pocket and said: "Little brother, we don't say code words, the market price of this thing is only one hundred and five, I will give you two hundred, and if there is any good thing in the future, remember me."

I received two hundred dollars, and I was amazed, the largest money I have seen in so long is only five dollars, and I can't imagine that a small silver ingot can be exchanged for two hundred yuan bills, which is worth much if other antiques are worth.

Taking a sip of water, he forced down the surprise in his heart, looked at the objects in the boss's store, pointed to the white bottle in the cabinet and said, "How much is that worth?"

The boss smiled, thinking that I had taken a fancy to it, raised a hand and shook it, I was taken aback, opened my mouth and asked him, "Just such a broken bottle, you want five hundred yuan?" ”

With a pop, the boss sprayed me with tea, and while reaching out to wipe it for me, he said embarrassedly: "Little brother, that thing is not something you can play with, not five hundred, not five thousand, but fifty thousand"

"What?"

I was so frightened that I jumped up, walked under the bottle and looked at it, I wanted to reach out and touch it to see what it felt like to have 50,000 yuan, but I stretched out my hand and didn't dare to fall in the air, because it was too expensive, and I was afraid that I would not be able to pay for it.

The boss pulled me into a chair and sat down, filled me with a cup of tea, got up and closed the door before whispering to me.

"Fifty thousand is not good, some items are hundreds of thousands, millions, if you can get them, I will guarantee you to eat and drink spicy food in this life"

At that time, I didn't know that this boss was leading me step by step into the abyss, and I chatted with him without a word, and when I asked him where these things came from, he was able to tell me that they were taken out of the tomb.

I thought of the tomb in the reservoir, and I couldn't help but ask the boss, "There are no big officials in this township, how can they take out so many strange things?" ”

The boss frowned, as if he was thinking, and after a long time, he said to me with a smile: "He Shen of the Qing Dynasty knows, he has a house slave from our township, as for that village...... I don't know."

And Shen?

I was surprised, when I was in school, Mr. Teaching said that he was the first corrupt official in Chinese history, and later the family property was copied by Emperor Jiaqing, but the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and the door man could be glamorous with the master, could it be that the tomb on the island was his house slave?

When the boss saw that I was hesitant, he gave me five yuan, saying that he was buying me wine to drink, but I refused him, and asked who is Heshen, a house slave?

"This person's name is Liu Quan, and he was the chief manager of Heshen at the time, what's the matter, did the little brother meet him?"

I thought about a few families in the village, and most of them were indeed surnamed Liu, could it be that Liu Quan, Heshen's house slave, was really buried on that small island? Thinking of this, I hurriedly grabbed two hundred yuan, said goodbye to my boss, and hurried back to the village.

After finding the dwarf, he spent twenty yuan in the shop, and made a large box of beer, and then threw fifty yuan to the dwarf, and asked him to go to the butcher's to chop a few catties of tenderloin.

After a few years, this widow is still charming, no wonder the big head he always likes to run to her house, she carried a few clothes, saw that we are meat and wine, immediately surprised and said.

"You two little bastards, you stole a lot of vegetables from my field when you were a child, and now you don't go to see me when you have a lot of skills"

She rummaged through a bunch of things, picked up a large piece of tenderloin and stuffed it into her basket, and said to me and the dwarf: "Aunt Zhang's man died early, and his life was hard, and this piece of meat will be compensated for stealing my vegetables from you two little bastards."

The dwarf saw that Aunt Zhang picked up the largest piece, which was five catties of meat, and it cost more than ten yuan, he suddenly became anxious, and reached out to touch Aunt Zhang's basket, but he didn't think that the meat came out, but he ripped off a few pairs of colored underwear, I hurriedly stopped the dwarf, and said to the eldest widow with a smile.

"Auntie, the big head has no mother, I also know about you and his old man, so let's do it, the meat is my brother's filial piety to you, and I will get you a bottle of good wine"

After saying that, I picked up a large bottle of Erguotou and stuffed it into her basket, she was very happy, and asked me and the dwarf to go to her house for dinner another day, and the dwarf watched her take away the meat and wine, and turned her head to scold me for being lustful, and looked at Widow Zhang.

Seeing that I had something to discuss with him, I didn't care about his complaints, so I paddled the boat into the reservoir before stopping, unscrewed two bottles of beer and handed it to him, and took a few sips before speaking.

"You are just buckle, I want the big head to take care of the two of us, how can the widow say that she is also an aunt, we can have thoughts about her, besides, what do you think this is?"

After speaking, I took out a hundred-yuan bill from my pocket, the dwarf's eyes suddenly turned green, and he snatched it, and said in surprise: "Did you kid steal something, this is a hundred yuan, and the big man can't find such a big money."

I didn't care about the hundred dollars, so I let the dwarf take them, and told him that they couldn't be used in the village, and that they had to go to the village to spend them, and then told him about the embroidered shoes, and he giggled happily.

"Huh...... Brother Shan, according to what you say, the brothers have made a fortune, no wonder Widow Zhang takes such a big piece of meat, you don't care, let's go, let's go back to cook meat and drink wine, and go at night."

I was so happy that I clasped my hands into fists, looked at the dwarf and said, "That's what I mean," and after that, I laughed with him, rowed the boat as fast as we could, and it didn't take long for us to land.

The dwarf was holding a bunch of things, his face was full of joy, although he was also eighteen years old, but he was still very small, I was worried that he would not be able to carry it, but he cleverly avoided me, and said mysteriously.

"Brother Shan, there is something I have hidden from you for a long time, in fact, my Lao Tzu used to be a man of the rivers and lakes, I was small because he practiced the bone shrinking skills, and what is even more fucked up is that he also forced me to practice, saying what to inherit the mantle"

When I heard this, I didn't want the dwarf to be a kung fu man, not to mention how happy I was, so when I got home, I took a fishing net full of holes, and it took a lot of effort to catch a carp weighing three catties.

That night was the most sumptuous meal I had in more than ten years, a big bowl of meat, a big bowl of wine, and I didn't touch a grain of rice in the pot, and I thought to myself that this was the life I wanted, and the days of poverty were finally over.

After three rounds of drinking, the dwarf and I took a firewood knife and a hoe and rowed away.

To be honest, I don't think there is anything during the day, but at night, this reservoir is really a little eerie, and I have to dig a grave, and my heart is even more furious, and the short man seems to be completely unafraid, and he actually whistles that only his mother is good in the world......
